HYDRAULIC JUMP IN A

SLOPED TRAPEZOIDAL
CHANNEL
The hydraulic jump is used to dissipate
the kinetic energy of a supercritical flow
to avoid important modifications of the
stilling basin bed. Nevertheless, the
trapezoidal section does not satisfy the
requirement of a stilling basin, but has
some interesting practical applications
when used as an irrigation ditch
(Achour 1989). The capacity of the
hydraulic jump to raise tailwater depth
is used to prime a hose siphon
designed for the required discharge.
The first detailed study of the hydraulic jump, in a rectangular channel with positive slope, was
by Bak hmeteff and Matzk (1938) who examined the surface profile, the length of the jump, and
the velocity distribution. Kindsvater (1944) classified sloped jump according to the position of
their toe with regard to the downstream extremity of the slope (Fig. 1), in four types: A-jump for
which the toe of the jump coincides with the downstream extremity of the slope, B-jump for
which the toe of the jump i s between the A-jump and the C-jump, C-jump for which the end of
the jump roller coincides with the downstream extremity of the slope, and D-jump for which the
jump roller appears completely in the sloped portion. The D-jump was analyzed by Wielogorski
and Wilson (1970), Ohashi and al. (1 973), Rajaratnam and Muhrahari (1974), Mikhalev and
Hoang (1976)
 Where h1 and h2 are flow depths, v1 and v2 are average velocities, a is the angle of
inclination of the channel, V is the volume of water included between sections 1 and 2; m
is the cotangent of the angle of inclination q of the channel, the volume V of the jump in a
trapezoidal channel
The present study suggests investigating, theoretically and experimentally, the hydraulic
jump in a trapezoidal channel and a positive slope.
